VALENTINE POEMS

an anthology selected by ADRESTIA GLAISTIG

This anthology of VALENTINE POEMS will appeal both to lovers and to lovers of literature. The poets are all famous but while you will be familiar with some of the works, many of the poems are less well known.  They have been selected for their beauty, intimacy, romance, and spiritual power, and are deserving of much love and exposure.   As with Glaistig's other poetry anthologies, while the emphasis is on the classic poets of modern British and American literature, you will come across a few surprises, works from distant lands and distant times.   You will recognise, amongst others, Emily Dickinson's WILD NIGHTS! WILD NIGHTS!,  Elizabeth Barrett Browning's HOW DO I LOVE THEE?,  D.H. Lawrence's KISSES IN THE TRAIN and EPILOGUE,  Amy Lowell's  THE WEATHER-COCK POINTS SOUTH, Walt Whitman's  A WOMAN WAITS FOR ME, and many others.​
